Friend w e i r d Telescopes A big West Virginia welcome to my weird telescope page. Achieving the very best views of the night sky is what this page is about. Showcased here are a variety of solutions by individuals in search of the perfect image. These instruments all seem strange: the need to use mirrors while keeping them from shadowing each other gives these telescopes odd geometries. Come join the quest. He appointed the moon for seasons:

http://www.litebox-telescopes.com/
This site will introduce you to a telescope for contemporary times, when wonderful optics crash headlong into the spreading problem of light pollution. Imagine a 12.5" telescope in your passenger seat, or an 18" scope in the back seat of any car, and imagine a design which does not compromise on shielding or rigidity. Say goodbye to 3/4" ply and find the best spots in the dark country sky. Purpose How big a scope can you transport and hand carry? Mine... To share my research, design and developments in the realm of ultra-portable, maximum-use, state-of-the-art starware. This page is intended for those who already own telescopes and understand the basics of Newtonian optical systems. My scope designs have grown out of an obsession with visual astronomy. If that is your interest, then please read on. 12.5" scope packed for car transport. Yours... You love stargazing and your current scope is slowing you down with it's bulk, it's weight, it's complexity and it's sticky bearings. Or perhaps you are ready for an increase in aperture but fear it will become an immovable object. You want a durable ultra-light scope with optics you choose and smooth, well-damped motions. You are curious about LITEBOX. Background 18" and 12.5" scopes in the back of a van.

The purpose of a telescope is not to magnify, as commonly thought, but to collect light no inherent effect whatever in determining the level of detail visible through a telescope.
The planet Saturn. This image shows Saturn approximately as it appears under good atmospheric conditions through the Meade ETX telescope at a power of 100x.
Example: Two telescopes, one with a main lens of 2" diameter (or aperture) and one with a main lens of 4" diameter are focused on the planet Jupiter. Both telescopes are set to use a power of 100 times (written as 100X). In the 2" telescope Jupiter's largest cloud belts are clearly observable; but in the 4" telescope the same cloud belts are seen to take on added structure and color, and smaller cloud belts are now visible that could not be discerned in the smaller instrument. It is the larger telescope's advantage in light-collecting capability that permits it to present more detail, more information, to the eye than is possible through the smaller telescope, irrespective of the powers employed on either instrument.
Types of Telescopes All telescopes fall into one of three optical classes. The relative advantages of each of these telescope designs will be made clear below.

The use of multiple telescopes to produce high resolution images commonly used at most modern observatories. A literature review article.
http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/2309/page1.html
Astronomical Optical Interferometry
A Literature Review by Bob Tubbs
St John's College Cambridge
April 1997 - updated 2002
Abstract This report documents the development of optical interferometry and provides a physical explanation of the processes involved. It is based upon scientific papers published over the last 150 years, and I have included references to the ones which are most relevant. The reader is assumed to have an understanding of modern optical theory up to undergraduate level - References 28 and 29 give explanations at a more basic level. The formation of images from interferometric measurements is discussed and several example images are included. Introduction Fizeau first suggested that optical interferometry might be used for the measurement of stellar diameters at the Academie des Sciences in 1867 . The short wavelength of light and the absence of sensitive calibrated detectors precluded more sophisticated interferometric measurements in the optical spectrum for over a century. After the Second World War most researchers instead turned to the radio spectrum, where macroscopic wavelengths and electronic detection greatly simplified the measurement of interferometric quantities. Modern computers, lasers, optical detectors and the data processing techniques developed for radio interferometry have recently enabled astronomers to produce high resolution images with optical arrays. At present only a few optical interferometer arrays are capable of image formation but many more are planned or under construction. The basic principles underlying the operation of optical interferometers have not changed, so I begin with a look at some of the earliest instruments.

So You Wanna Buy a Telescope... Advice for Beginners
By Ed Ting Updated 2/2/02
So, you've decided to take the plunge and buy a telescope congratulations! Astronomy can be a life long pleasure, with the right equipment. But what to buy? And how do you not wind up with a room that looks like the above? There's more equipment out there than ever before. This article will attempt to make some sense out of the seemingly huge selection of scopes and accessories. Ready? Good. Let's begin. First of all, some words of advice: 1) Learn to spot a few constellations and maybe a planet or two with the naked eye. If you can't point to M42, how do you expect to able to point a telescope (which has a much narrower field of view) there? 2) Subscribe to one of the two major magazines, Sky and Telescope or Astronomy. These will get you started not only with finding celestial objects, it will also acquaint you with the variety of equipment out there. Don't buy anything yet! 3) Join if you know how to use them.
